Sawx.

I want my grandfather to witness another Red Sox World Series win after waiting his whole life to get just one.

i picked LAA, i'm getting tired of the red sox, and most of them are likely fuckin patriots fans too.

Sox. Just because. Also, hate the way the Angels added the Los Angeles of to their name.

I'm pretty much neutral on this one -- but will root FOR either winner if they face the Yanx but AGAINST either if Cleveland is the opponent.

This is a wash for me - I want whoever will give the Yankees the toughest fight.

Angels. I'd rather stab myself in the eye than sit through more Yanks-Sox bullshit.

Sox, but I really don't have much of a preference. I just don't want them to go much farther, lest Red Sox fans actually start to get spoiled.

Though I'm wary of going to the well once too often, the Angels loom as anti-MFY insurance. Besides, I keep calling them my favorite A.L. team yet I cast them aside in 2004 (Red Sox) and 2005 (White Sox) for better postseason stories. I also agree that MFY-Red Sox will be far too overbearing to handle.

Nothing against the Sawx, but I'm a fan of Guerrero and Anderson. An enthusiastic yes vote for LAA.

Surprised there aren't more votes for the Angels.

Red Sox = second most insufferable team/fanbase in baseball.

Only voting for the Sawx because I have tickets to ALCS Game 7 at Fenway.

don't really care about this series, both teams have been in the playoffs enough that they don't get the "they haven't been here before, so it would be nice to do good" award...I'll go with the Sox simply for 3 reasons: 1) A team that can't even decide where the hell they are from eventhough they have never moved, doesn't deserve a vote; 2) I'm sick of those stupid red thumping things and rally monkeys; 3) I'm stuck watching 162 red sox games per year, so I guess I aughta root for the bums since they have a better chance of beating the Yanks later on...

Very cool, hope there's a game for you to watch. I suppose yanks Sox would be the dream match up.
